We only meant to stay one night, but after ten minutes we were calling the owner to ask if we could add a few more days. The apartment is lovely and was offered at a more than fair price. The owner was nice, and the place sits among citrus trees. 🍋 It's just a few minutes by car from Taormina and under an hour from the north side of Etna. We'll definitely come back someday. 😍🥰
Chianchitta is an easy place to reach from Catania and not far from Taormina. We had a great view of Etna, Italy's most beautiful volcano, with trees and four horses around us in a natural setting. The owner was friendly and helpful. It seems like a good choice for couples or families wanting a relaxing Sicilian holiday.
The peaceful atmosphere surprised me, especially given how touristy and well connected the area around Taormina is. La Tenuta is a lemon farm dating back to 1860, now run as a self-sustaining ecological farm, with lemon trees, vegetables, and fruits including bananas and tomatoes. Horses roam freely alongside the other harmless animals, and the property has different accommodation options and activities. Andrea, the owner, helped make the stay special. He recommended places to visit and explained the thoughtful practices behind La Tenuta's ecological setting. With its quiet and amenities, it suited us well for relaxing away from the crowded hotels around Taormina, Recanati, and Giardini Naxos. I'd recommend it to couples and families, and I'm quite sure I'll be back.
I flew in from Geneva, Switzerland, on 28 August 2014 and arrived at "La Tenuta delle gentil Uomo", which a dear friend, Ivanue from Sicily, had recommended. To my surprise, I'd already met Andrea in Geneva. It felt like the dream of visiting Sicily began right there, as I headed to a place I'd never known and already felt at home. We sat in the gorgeous garden eating bruschetta with fresh tomatoes and basil grown there. My apartment had a view of Etna, and I napped while the Sirocco, the warm wind from the other side of the Mediterranean, seemed to massage my skin and help me dream. My dream of going to Sicily had come true. Then, early in the morning, I heard the wild horses running around and watched them from the balcony. I jumped out of bed and went downstairs, where a gorgeous mare came over to give me a morning kiss, as if to wish me a good stay or say goodbye!
A calm, green spot close to both the sea and the mountains, with kind hosts. Great place.
